Application CommentsThis antibody cocktail was selected to provide a specific marker for neurons in tissue sections and cultured cells. In contrast to individual anti-nonphosphoneurofilament antibodies that identify different subsets of neurons, this cocktail is a convenient marker for neurons in general and their differentiation from non-neuronal cells. Also useful as an early marker of neuronal migration and differentiation in human fetal development, yielding Golgi-like images without the disadvantages of the lack of selectivity and poor specificity of the Golgi technique. Can be used to trace the "inside-out gradient" of neuron production and differentiation in specifically delineating cell bodies and dendrites. Certain pathologic conditions, such as malnutrition, affect the SMI-311-visualized soma size and dendritic arborization. Tissues and cultured cells can be fixed in a variety of paraformaldehyde- or formaldehyde-containing fixatives, including Bouin's fixative. This antibody does not react well with tissues or cells fixed in glutaraldehyde/paraformaldehyde. For staining paraffin sections it is recommended that de-paraffinized tissues be autoclaved in dH2O for 10 min to expose the epitope. Trypsin pre-treatment will abolish reactivity. Post-fixation in cold methanol or methanol/hydrogen peroxide facilitates access of the antibody to the neurons in frozen sections and thick tissues sections that have been fixed in 4% paraformaldehyde or cultured cells. For tissues that have not been paraffin-embedded and have been stored for long periods of time in formaldehyde fixatives, it is recommended that the tissues (up to 0.5 cm thick) be boiled in Tris-buffered saline, pH 9.0 for 15 min prior to sectioning. Antibody should be titrated for optimal results in individual systems.
